This week I posted about my son Nate’s home remedy for a cold and my friend Char’s Power Soup . On another online magazine, High Country MomSquadsomeone commented on homemade cough syrup. That comment sent me searching out homemade cough syrups. WOW. There are about a billion out there and some of them look really good!

I wanted to share with you a couple of sites that I found that I particularly like the look of:

For the underaged and those who don’t want any alcoholic content, this site has a good recipe that contains a whole bunch of health food store ingredients that I’ve used separately in the past. It makes total sense that combining some of them will make a great cough syrup.

This is the simplest homemade cough remedy I found online.

This one takes a little more work and some time on the stove. This post also contains some interesting information, written by someone with a nutrition background.

This site has a whole page of reader-generated ideas for dealing with cough. Be mindful that anyone can post anything on pages like this, so you don’t really know if these ideas have real merit. Still, some interesting reading.

This site has a HUGE collection of links to various homemade cough remedies. You could get LOST on this site, so be sure to bookmark it!
